there’s power in being a lesbian, there’s a rich history that holds us tight and secure, there’s a wonderful legacy of strong women behind us, there’s such a personal clarity and comfort that comes from loving women and only women, there’s a wholeness that found itself deep inside me ever since I learned to accept myself – despite all of the hardship, ridicule, isolation, silence, and degradation, I love who I am and consider my sexuality a gift, a pleasure, and a blessing
